There is a pattern emerging in my mind. Whether the novel political upheaval of the day is anti-monarchist revolutionaries, anti-Communists, or LGBT/BLM/defund-the-police activists, it takes the silent majority of moderate reasonable people a little time to figure out what the fomentor's game is, and distinguish political change with real sustained staying power vs. the flash in the pan. Then, as people grow tired of the day's fad and having daily life disrupted by something that clearly isn't working, they develop the successful counterarguments and the public support to quiet those unreasonable agitators. It takes time, but you eventually see what actually sticks as the change desired by the bulk of reasonable people.
